Es gibt nix schöneres ...

There is not much that beats running in great places ... its so relaxing, enjoyable, einfach nur geil - wie man so sagt. By 'great' place i mean stuff like along a beach, a nice forest trail etc. But since one usually does not have these things just outside the front door (especially living in cities around the globe) parks are probably the best alternative. And i have to admit i have fallen in love with running in Hyde Park (Holland Park is good as well but does not have that same flair) ... especially when (and this has happened surprisingly often) there is sunshine or anything close to resembling sunshine (which in england typically means any day during which it does not rain) ... and the park is so alive ... its just a perfect place to run. Btw what i was surprised to discover is how different Hyde Park is from Central Park .... from the lay-out/concept there both virtually the same - but they are nothing alike ... and what could be better for running that spring slowly emerging - no need to be covered in layers upon layers of running gear ...
